Looks like all sorts of NDAs are being broken/expiring. I smell a Rat (cough)

It sure seems like it doesn’t it 🤔? There is no way that a boring PR outing merching LaCrosse and Haagen Dazs earned them one million bucks, no strings attached. Ask yourselves, who profited the most from HW’s investment in SM while sacrificing nothing in return? Adam. That explains why he sided with SoFail against BC. He did so to the extent that he even pissed off the Rat! I always knew there was more to that…

Split into 5.35 million because distro keeps approximately 50% and the rest goes to the studio/s. They are collectively in the red to the tune of 25 million with only a few weeks left to go. See Benedict? This is what happens when you listen to idiots. Keep calm and carry on…straight into hell 🙄.

Ben? STFU. Let me remind you that the Rat, mean as they are, had no problem with you investing your MCU money into SunnyMarch ‘cinema’. What they didn’t agree with was SoFail blackmailing you into fucking bankruptcy. Remember how they agreed to put Adam Ackland on their damn payroll as your ‘Assistant’ during DS filming? In return what did that ingrate do? He convinced you to go back on your word and to stay in the shitty ShamWow. Friends? All I see is a bunch of moochers blowing smoke up your ass! Look, I know you are upset because the Rat’s been pressuring you to take the trash out. You have to admit that they’re right and you really don’t want to force their hand…

Benedict Cumberbatch Refuses to Take a Role If He and His Female Co-Stars Aren’t Being Paid the Same

Erm, I can’t think of anyone that has accused BC of being misogynistic? But this looks more like clumsy damage control on behalf of Adam (SM) and/or UTA. It’s just like them to toss some moldy CopyPasta from mid May of last year! Oh and another thing, I hate to break it to y’all but white chicks really aren’t at a huge disadvantage. If SunnyMarch wants to be truly inclusive as per London demographics? Then about 40% of their staff should be POC or they are full of shit. Sorry, it just had to be said…

Ballsy:   IDK.  But I’m going with – I have never needed to see a movie less than – “Benedict Cumberbatch with a big mo playing a guy who paints cats”.

Because “why”?  I mean that.  This whole thing is just too bizarre.  “Famed”?  Never heard of him.  The cast?  I’m sure they are fine actors, but … haven’t heard of them either.  

Or maybe I’m just not a “cat person”.  

Whatever.  This just feels too … forced.  

But then, I’m still SO excited for So-Fail’s production debut of the … thing … her sis-in-law wrote.  When is THAT happening?   So Dystopian Floods, much Motherhood.  

I know.  I know.  But … MY GOD!!!!!   This feels like such a pantomime step down.  It’s cringe-worthy.  :S

I’m…touched 😢. Just yesterday we were wondering out loud, “Where art thou Ben?” Ask and you shall receive 😂! Nice to see Ben’s waxed stache and Foy channeling Mary Poppins 😏. Wain’s descent into madness is interesting because it was so well documented. That said there is a bit of a debate as to whether or not Schizophrenia was all Wain was suffering from. It turns out he was still perfectly capable of drawing realistic cats towards the end of his life! He only did so on a whim lending credence to the theory that he was suffering from a neurodegenerative disorder. Back to SunnyMarch though, apparently they are no longer co-producing this project based on the hashtags? I’m sure TCW disaster had nothing to do with that 🙄…

PS: Will start filming in August? Old news is old. Oh Adam you don’t fool us, you daft coattail jockey.

RE: The Current War

I presume they’re in Cannes to promote that old lemon? Adam’s got a big head alright but definitely not for business…at least not of the honest kind. Even with extensive editing it’s clear that TCW is no Oscar contender. Furthermore it’s tainted by HarveyGate and there is little that they can do to change that. Their best bet would be to reach a deal with the likes of Amazon or Netflix to recoup their losses ASAP. Focus on getting Ironbark in the can before it too looses momentum…but what do I know 🙄?

PS: Good luck getting investors with known embezzlers like SoFail onboard!

Judging from how fucked up he was at the Oscars? That’s not a joke. Is SoFail his pusher? Dude, you might want to cut back on the devil’s dandruff. Remember this:

#3 – This foreign born dual threat (working on triple threat) A lister is wasting away because of the drugs he has been taking the past few months. Apparently they love their oxy products even on the other side of the pond. Benedict Cumberbatch

That and the veganism is making you look terrible. You know what’s going to happen? Your roles will be recast and given to actors who can keep their shit together because you obviously can’t.

Bit late to the party but huge congrats to Alice for her BAFTA win! Since everyone’s talking about BC I think it’s very telling that in a company that has no problems with nepotism that Zero has never had any role in any of SunnyMarch’s projects. Her sister-in-law got her book proposed as a project and yet Zero has had no acting roles, no directing roles, no production creds, no design creds of any kind and the only association she’s had with the company is that she’s leaking money via BC.

gatorfisch:

Amen. Although if that blind is correct, she is in the payroll. And siphoning funds from the company.

You know what I suspect based on that PR generated Twitter BI? That there is some truth to the rumors about that shady Malay? investor but there’s more to it IMO. I’ve seen this maneuver firsthand before and it involves multiple dishonest parties bleeding a small company dry before purposely driving it into the ground. It’s always at the expense of the main investor/s, in this case Ben. So the guilty party is made up of Adam, Alice and SoFail by proxy as well? Great 🙄!

The new SM logo is simple but effective. I like how the marching Ms turn the negative space into a sunburst. What’s interesting is how closely it resembles a Schwarze Sonne or Black Sun. It’s ironic from a Jungian perspective and a bit creepy from an esoteric one…

Honestly I don’t like it at all. Zoomed in it’s not catchy or appealing, zoomed out like in avatar size it looks like an anus.
Well, a yellow one 😣

Bringing this back because that may not be a coincidence after all…

International Investment Banker specializing in Asian markets and another one of SH’s very well connected ‘friends’. Lookee, he was chummy with Swinestein too. Did you know that HW was said to get some of his working girls from others, including an A-List music mogul? Remember how BC had a hard time getting investors for SM? I wonder if SH set Adam Ackland up with that SE Asian investor with ER’s help…

Hey I’ve been aware of the whole sitch and I can’t say I blame them :/. At the same time it’s sad how BC got himself into this bind. First HW, then Team Soso and now he’s gagged by SM in order to protect their interests. There is a silver lining however because all the signs:

ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 03/11 **#1**
Want to know how the wife of this foreign born A- list mostly movie actor who now has a superhero franchise laundered her escort and hush money? Through the same system of banks that exposed several other foreign born entertainers. Benedict Cumberbatch (“Dr. Stephen Strange”)/Sophie Hunter (“The Panama Papers”)

ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 10/25 **#10**
The wife of this foreign born A list dual threat actor now considers herself a world class movie producer after being on a set twice. Umm. So, anyway, she is committing the new family production company to some really big ticket items and if you haven’t noticed, the cash flow has slowed to a trickle. Sophie Hunter/Benedict Cumberbatch (In May 2017, Hunter was announced as a producer for the film adaptation of Megan Hunter’s dystopian novel The End We Start From alongside her husband Cumberbatch and Adam Ackland’s production company Sunnymarch, and Liza Marshall’s Hera Productions.)

ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 01/03 **#10**
I suppose when this foreign born A list dual threat actor saw his bank accounts were several million dollars less than they should have been, that perhaps he understood his wife was not really interested in love, but enriching her own accounts. That money has already moved several steps thanks to her long time lover. Benedict Cumberbatch/Sophie Hunter

-point to an audit and that means Game Over. AA, SH etc. will be too busy (and broke) trying to save their asses to worry about paying off the tabs. For starters they have that Malay investor and that trail could lead back to a rather infamous fund. It’s not unlikely that AA may have gotten a cut of what Team Soso embezzled/stole from BC. We also know that SoFail launders dirty money instead of clothes. I always knew something was up with those frequent trips to the Balearics and the sudden interest in modern ‘art’. At Frieze SoFail wanted to buy a piece of junk valued at half a million quid, using that market as a cover is typical of a certain type of criminal… 

Benedict Cumberbatch’s SunnyMarch Banner Taps Leah Clarke as Head of Film (EXCLUSIVE)

Hiring support staff makes the headlines? Still riding off of BC’s name too. Oh, come now PR, I know damn well why you bothered and that Kinvara didn’t lie, the proof is in the financials. I don’t see any new projects so this is a rehash of what we’ve known for well over a year and with TWC’s impending demise? Good luck getting wide distribution for TCW. I’d also shelf Megan’s project, the Hunters are bad for business and you can’t afford more losses…

Benedict Cumberbatch’s SunnyMarch Banner Taps Leah Clarke as Head of Film (EXCLUSIVE)

Look closer…

Even the stannies don’t know what BC’s up to most of the time. Unless it’s an obvious PR or work related outing we don’t bother figuring out where he is. So if Team Soso is keeping close tabs on BC? They must have a spy at SM, maybe even AA himself and are trying to divert attention by blaming us. Nice try losers!

I’m bit lost here. Why is Benedict’s time running out? This afternoon TCiT will be airing, SM’s first effort. Patrick Melrose is filming with very good actors. Why would these actors accept to be on a series produced by SM and Benedict if the situation is as you paint it? Are your sources really trustworthy? It seems that each time you announce a split it happens just the opposite as if someone was trolling you.

gatorfisch:

Because he reneged on his agreement with Disney. And they are NOT HAPPY about it.

You see PM was lined up when BC’s relationship with the Rat was still good. It’s not anymore because it looks like he’s not keeping his end of the bargain. It seems like he kept moving the end date, first until TIFF, then until TCiT aired and they aren’t willing to give him another extension. BC’s probably stalling out of fear but the reasons don’t matter, he has to follow through now or else

Maybe him, Adam and Weirdo are a team now and he thinks it’s going to be okay.

gatorfisch:

Then he’s wrong. And when it’s all over, both Adam and Zero will be gone

LMAO! Don’t be stupid Nonny, SoFail is in it for herself. She’s sabotaged SM projects as well and by doing so has affected AA not just BC. The main problem is that AA doesn’t want to rock the boat with UTA. UTA on the otherhand doesn’t want to take any responsibility for the ShamWow and for letting SH run wild. The only thing AA and SH are going to team up for is to pick BC’s carcass clean!

Re “How to Stop Time”: I think Ben’s just taking the big-studio stuff because it pays for the indie Sunny March projects he wants to work on to build the company. SM doesn’t have a regular director/producer with contacts on board like Bad Robot has JJ Abrams. IDK about Adam, but B’s prob. not a good pitchman (esp w/that foot-in-mouth tendency) so his best pitch, once the property has been secured, is acting in it. It’s an interesting business plan, if that’s it.

gatorfisch:

Dude, he’s taking whatever work he can find…let’s not fool ourselves. He always has and probably always will.

I think it needs to be said that SM is AA’s baby first and foremost, BC really shouldn’t put all his eggs in that basket. AA isn’t a very good pitchman either and I am not convinced that he is better as a business partner than he is as a friend. What I am getting at is that as BC’s appeal wanes (his fault) AA will undoubtedly start looking elsewhere…
